RSVP:
If you are planning to sit and have breakfast with us, please let us know, either by posting in the event, or by messaging us direct so we can confirm numbers with the venue.

 

We will meet at Loftus Oval Carpark which has plenty of room and is low car frendly.

 

This is a quick turn into the Royal National Park and some nice roads and scenery.

 

After Stanwell Tops we will turn off and head onto the awesome Sea Cliff Bridge.

 

Following this it is a short trip to Austi Beach Cafe.

 

There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost.

 

We will also be bringing along walkie talkies to keep the group together so if you have one please bring it along.

 

If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior!

 

This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days.

 

This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit.

 

One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.

 

When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to:
• Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly.
• Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should.
• Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly.
• Any misbehaviour will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.

 

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!

Hi David!

Apologies mate - Work has been stealing a lot of my attention lately! 😢

Thanks for letting us know! We'll do a final count of heads on the day for those joining us!

(You're actually the only person who's formally RSVP'd - much appreciated!)

Cheers!

Sam

No worries at all! I didn't mean to put on pressure. I'm used to people requiring weeks of notice and I wasn't sure where to respond. So all good

Is this still going ahead tomorrow?

Happy to head out for some breakfast but I'm wondering how accessible the national park is at the moment.

Looking at the Audley Weir webcam footage for example:

That's a big nope currently

Ouch, and with current rain that is falling (my friends house in 2173 is currently flooding for the first time ever) I would assume the weir will be flooding for a while yet

It isn't a big system, but all the water catchments are full and the ground is saturated 

On a positive note, there are waterfalls everywhere 

Should go for a drive up the blue mountains ⛰️ tomorrow .......nope, the Hawkesbury-Nepean makes me nervous when it is raining

If you get a good rear entry into the turn just commit and slide out the other end. Just make sure you have good extended lock knuckles.

 

 

Yeah nah, I don't think it's going down anytime soon.

They’re going to skip the weir and go into the nasho at waterfall

This was a first for me. It was nice meeting some of the members! Hopefully next time the weather works out better and there'll be a chance for more people to come. And also a bit more driving.

If anyone is on the fence about joining or attending: Everyone is really nice and welcoming. It's also very much not exclusive to Skylines which is great. Jeep, Holden, Toyota, it was all covered and I wasn't expecting that. So overall much recommended.

I didn't take any photos because I'm an egg. But Jen took some.
